Right-wing political operative and former President Donald Trump ally Roger Stone on Wednesday, without evidence, called the upcoming rally outside the U.S. Capitol in support of those who stormed that building on Jan. 6 as “agitprop” and “a setup.”
“I don’t know a single person in the MAGA movement who’s going,” he said on Russia Today. “It’s a setup.”
“Here’s my suggestion,” he continued. “The people who will be there will all be working for the government,” he continued, without providing proof. “Nice try.”
Stone said he won’t be in attendance.
He went on to say that there are “so many unanswered questions about Jan. 6” and that “now they’re trying to recreate it.”
“It’s a sympathy ploy,” said Stone. “Let’s face it: Jan. 6 gave the government the single greatest opportunity they’ve ever had to abridge our constitutional rights, particularly our First Amendment rights.”
Stone’s message to Trump supporters ahead of the rally: “No, patriots, stay away from Washington. This is what is called a setup.”
Stone also baselessly remarked that “if there’s a single arme[d] protester there, they’ll be working for the federal government. This is so obvious. Who would go there armed?”
“Folks, I’m appealing to you,” he continued. “Stay away. Stay safe. Stay in your homes and, by all means, never bring a firearm to the District of Columbia.”

It is good advice for the average man, and with this, Roger also covers himself.
Yet some ARE cut out for this and I expect them to police each other and be very wise.
Over at patriots.win they say the same.
The “siege” was staged — all of it.
Can’t say I disagree. Need to relocate to a friendly venue.. like Mexico
Thats what Code Monkey and Proud Boys say also.
Who is going other than FBI thugs?
“Check out the brain on Roger...”
Worked brilliantly too, didn’t it??
Now citizens (on the right only, of course) will think twice before getting involved. The 1/6 protesters exist solely as cautionary tales, not actual criminals.
I think I agree with him. Those folks are skating on very thin ice, at their own risk. It seems likely they’ll do more harm than good for the cause.
The “siege” was staged — all of it.
That’s too bad. Are there no patriots left amongst us?
WE NEED TO NAME OUR OWN PROTEST BEFORE DEMOCRATS NAME IT FOR US...
REMEMBER: ANYONE ENCOURAGING VIOLENCE IS ANTIFA, BLM, FBI, OR CAPITOL POLICE.
No. See tagline.
Yep. Planted the fear they hoped for. Event should have been planned for Texas venue. At least if arrested patriots
might have a fair hearing.
i wonder what the false flag event will be this time?
Something to justify a new crackdown and witch hunt from nancy.
Starting with the idiot wearing animal horns in his hat.
Sounds like a Chris Wray goonfest to me.
Exactly, he wasn't a typical Trump supporter, he was some kook patsy nut.
Again? Nancy Pelousy has a rather threadbare playbook, doesn’t she? Actually, as far as the press in concerned, just about everything is an opportunity for a way of leveraging their poisonous narrative, until it backfires.
This either will backfire, or it will fizzle. I hope that Trump rallies replace any public events that the left can corrupt. Being circumspect, is wise right about now.
Here’s my question. Why does it have to be one big rally in DC? They don’t listen to us anyway, and have proven they will use dirty tricks to ensnare the random patriot. Change will happen at the state level, that’s where our efforts should be aimed.
Best stay away from this event, I can bet its a setup and anyone going is either stupid or a Snitch for Government..
